Rare soy brown glazed stoneware vessel made in the shape of a grain silo.

It reminds me a lot of a Jizhou glaze but this seems heavier and more stable.

The body is thinly potted with very light gray clay and originally had a dark gray slip applied to the outside (the original gray slip is still intact in the cavity)...
